Consignment

 

What is consignment?

Recycling your preloved children's clothing and maternity wear is an ideal way to make some extra cash while helping the environment. 

Reusing and reselling items that have lots of life left in them is a great way to declutter. You are helping to allow others to find great stuff at reduced costs. We love sustainable fashion.

Consignment is the resale of previously owned goods. Sea Stars is the consignee and the client is the consignor. Fees are split 60/40. Consignors receive 40% of the selling price.  


Guidelines

  • Please call ahead to ensure space is available and that staff is available to do your intake.
     

  • There are 3 drop off spots that are available per day. We will accept a maximum of 1 bin of clothing per drop off. We have limited space available so please choose your items carefully.
     

  • We accept in season clothing, shoes, maternity wear and accessories. No equipment or toys please. Clothing in size Preemie/Newborn to 14/16.
     

  • Clothing must be in new or like new condition. Freshly laundered, free of any pet hair or stains. Please ensure that footwear has little wear and that the soles are clean.
     

  • We do not accept George brand or items that are not current styles. We prefer name brand items, bamboo & small shop pieces. No hard feelings. We are a small shop so we tend to be pickier in how to fill our space. We can not say over the phone definitively if we will consign your items without seeing them.
     

  • Please allow yourself time for us to sort through your consignment items. You may browse the shop while we do so or come back before closing the same day. We cannot store items that we won't be selling.
     

  • Consignors are given the option to allow Sea Stars to donate items we do not accept to charity on their behalf. In this case drop offs can be made at any time. Any unsold items will also be donated to charity at the end of the contract/season.
     

  • It is your responsibility to manage your own account. Consignment contracts are for 1 year from date of drop off. Any funds unclaimed after 1 year of account inactivity become the property of Sea Stars Kids Boutique. To keep your account active please continue to consign with us or make purchases using your store credit.
     

  • You will earn 40% of the selling price as items sell. Money is accumulated in your consignment account as each item sells. Accounts can be paid out in cash/cheque or can be used in store credit. We do not do E-Transfers.

  • Items are kept as long as they are in season. All items are subject to sales and markdowns.
     

  • Items with issues that are found after the intake process that have flaws or other issues: rips, missing buttons, broken zippers, etc will be discounted (AS IS) or if deemed unsaleable will be donated to charity. We cannot store your items. 
     

  • Sea Stars is not responsible for damage, fire or theft. Items are left at your own risk.
     

  • You are welcome to call, DM, email or message us with your account information (Full Name or Account Number) to inquire about your account balance.

  • We are committed to the community and the environment. Sea Stars has connected with some amazing local charities. You can feel confident that we will send items to the appropriate places where they can be recycled and re used.
